We have several programs and opportunities available to our local companies and companies looking to expand to Emery County. We work closely with businesses to apply for Fast Track Grants and offer tax incentives to promote growth. The BEAR program allows those supporting the economic workforce and community development  efforts of our region to look at customer data in new ways. This is a tool to make strategic decisions about how to best apply limited economic, workforce and community development resources on a company by company basis.  Our BEAR and SBDC programs are a sound economic development strategy ensuring that priority issues are addressed and limited resources are well targeted – again on a company by  company basis.

Our system enables economic development team members to devise strategies that cultivate competitiveness in each company within a targeted sector or industry - creating successful companies, one at a time that, by extension, boosts the entire economy. We are focused on helping individual businesses flourish and survive in a multi-dimensional, holistic and highly effective way.

We also work closely with the Small Business Development Center that provides one-on-one management consulting to help with everything from starting, to maintaining and growing your business!
